Heroes in a Half Shell!

If you couldn't already tell from his birthday post, Sammy is a bit Turtle obsessed at the moment. :)

He picked that as his theme for his birthday and his grandparents and a bunch of others went with the theme. He loved it!

On his actual birthday, he had pink eye. Sad! He had to miss his soccer game and we had to reschedule his birthday party.

We gave him our gift anyway and he loved it.

He got this digger toy for the sandbox and the kids had a great time playing with it and the dump truck.

My dad and Patti got him the mask and one of the swords and my mom got him the shell and the other sword, so between them all he had a complete turtle outfit! He was super excited! And he wants to be Leonardo for Halloween so we are almost ready for that already!

I also made him a cake still.

It turned out pretty awesome, in my opinion. :)

4 years old!

A week later, we had his party. This time around, I made a batch of cupcakes. I love how cute they turned out. :)

We colored turtles, then gave them masks.

Then the most fun, most time consuming part - become turtles! I made swords from PVC pipe and pool noodles, masks from t-shirts, and shells from dollar store roasting pans, spray paint, and ribbon. The kids looked so cool!

And Spencer made himself some Shredder arms and grabbed a cape. The kids thought it was hilariously fun to attack him and Spencer was such a great sport about it!

And of course, any Turtle party wouldn't be complete without pizza! It was a lot of work but it was so much fun!
